OK, one from our side. Number31's Top 10 is well worth your time. But only if you like laughing.

OK we're getting close people! Two very busy days coming up. The Little People previews will hit in full force today with both D and goalies. And tomorrow morning we have a special surprise for you (ice cream!) before finally setting the table for, you know, hockey.

Maybe its just the lawyer in me, or the fact that I'm pissed that Quebec wouldn't forgive taxes on Le Nouveau Forum, but doesn't Reinsdorf's deal for the Burb Yotes violate the Free Trade Agreement? That's an awful lot of public money going into the pot, particularly in a state of gun toting, Tea Party patriots. I liked the idea of the team going back to the 'peg.

Does anyone actually think that our boys can make it past the caps in this round? I honestly think that playing them would be better than playing anyone else in the east. Especially since the caps literally had 24 games against the south east division with a record of 19-3-2. Not to mention they were the only team in said division to make the playoffs. We had four out of five teams in our division make the offs but just imagine how much padding the caps record and stats got from all those one sided games. That and Theo isn't known for playing well in clutCH games or playing with attitude. I like being the underdog and think that we will surprise a lot of analysts out there. Fuck McSplooge and Fuck the EA sports simulator, both can lick my taint.

I am back in my CHildhood (that sometimes happens when you get to my age) and I believe the Habs can beat anyone. It is not a matter of all the fucking stats that we look at, it comes down to the fact that hockey is played on a sheet of ice, not a sheet of paper.

This is why we play hockey, for the tough games, not the easy ones. And face the facts, Superpleks is right, Theodore is not Brodeur or Miller. Go HABS Go!!

Don't get me wrong, I am cheering for them either way. I'd LOVE to see them win one of the away games and see Boudreau lose it and then come back home and win those too (aah fantasies!) But I don't wanna get all excited only to be disappointed in 4 games. The only way they can pull off the upset is if they play the Caps like they have all season and Halak gets his A game back. All year though, we've seen them come out dominating in the first period and then fall apart in the second. If this is how they show up, the Caps will eat them alive...

Hard to predict which team will come out for the Habs. Let's hope the Count has some playoff coaching up his sleave(ha!) and the players rally together.

We are going to find out the moxie content of this team. We are Kanuks and this is our game ... we know for a fact that any team can beat any other team on any give day provided it wants it enough. The team that wants it, will win it. Still ... this will require my '93 T-shirt, my Shrine and a large and handy source of Belgian Beer. Go Habs.

About Four Habs Fans

The Four(-ish) Habs Fans are four(-ish) Habs fans. Three are from Montreal, though one of those is now stuck in the middle of the Red Mile. The other somehow grew up a Habs fan in the middle of Ontario Cottage Country, and now lives in Hogtown. Some of them are lawyers, so they are opinionated, and may or may not be assholes.

HabsFan29 is a lifelong Montrealer who decided the Four Habs Fans' email exchanges about the Habs were just too stupidly amusing and occasionally intelligent not to share with the world. The 29 is for the greatest (only?) Goalie-lawyer-PM candidate ever. He would like his mom to know that his meth habit is overstated on this blog for comedic effect.

HabsFan4 paid tribute to one of the finest gentlemen to ever don a Canadiens sweater. His legacy as one of the pioneers of the Gangsta Rap movement has always been understated. His Jaro posts will be recalled fondly by all.

HabsFanForever33 aka Panger is a Montrealer in Exile currently residing mere blocks from the Red Mile, yet whose passion for all things Canadiens has only embiggened with distance. HFF33 worships at the altar of St. Patrick. Panger still gets chills recalling the moment he met the greatest goal-scorer of all time, The Rocket. HFF33 is a life-long Habs fan, except during the Houle-Tremblay Era, when Le Club de Hockey Canadiens was dead to Panger.

HabsFan10 grew up watching Le Demon Blond on Radio-Canada with his unilingual English Dad in a WASPy little town in Maple Leafs country, at least until the playoffs each year, when he got to hear Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin because the Leafs played on opposite nights (if they made the playoffs at all). Rick Middleton and Cam Neely sometimes haunt his dreams. He thinks Thurso, Quebec should be declared a national historical site. If you aren't sure what the 10 in HF10 stands for, you're on the wrong site, buster.

moeman born in l'Estie'd'Québec, was baptized Maurice because well his Mom, seeing his beautiful dark locks and glaring eyes knew he'd need a namesake, actually it was his Mon Oncle Yvon that CHristened his Habstism, deep in central Ontario no less. He took life's circuitous route and blessed his own son with the name Patrick in 1993. He also has a gorgeous daughter but she's a Sens fan, so, meh. moeman loves women, wine, song, women, Habs, his kids, women, iOS Apps, hockey blogging women and women. His other passion, he hates the leaf. He also loves women.
